Ultron is the penultimate villain, for the avengers. More so than even Thanos, despite his greater power.
Speaking as someone who has read EVERY issue of avengers ever, it has to end with him. Civil War was epic, but Avengers fans know that whenever Ultron shows up...hell, when even his name is mentioned, the entire atmosphere of the story changes. It's unexplainable really, but an Ultron story in Avengers just has a different feel from everything else. It's a always a total "shit just got real" moment whenever he shows up, and not even the civil war concept can match it, imo.
